Called to read data by some external means. When done the provided completion delegate must be called. Passing a nullptr for the response data will trigger a read error and a subsequent playback error. Returning fewer bytes than requested implicitly means the end of the file was reached while reading. If a read request for 0 bytes at offset 0 is made you are to return the total size of the file. For this request it is permitted to return a nullptr for response data without resulting in an error. Read requests may set the number of bytes to read to MAX_INT64 to indicate reading until the end of the file. The player has no upfront knowledge about the size of the file so it cannot always adjust the number of bytes to be read. Even when returning the size of the file in an earlier read there is no guarantee that the number of bytes to be read will be adjusted accordingly. Returning a negative value for the total size of the file is treated as an error and will be handled like a file-not-found error, even though that should not be possible. You are providing this reader class to the player knowing that the URL to play exists and is valid. If the offset to read from is given as a negative value this is an indication that you may close the file, but such a call is optional. You may close the file after having closed the player. You may however open and close the file with every read request if that is more convenient for you. The player will wait indefinitely for the response data to be provided. There are no timeouts. Youmustcall the provided delegate even for failures.
